THATS FRESH Detailed: 2001 Fern Green 325i
this car belongs to BIMMERFAN08. he wanted to properly clean and protect the paint for the summer. he also wanted to prep the car which is being given to his mom in trade for his M3 this summer so i dont call this a full detail. since he helped with the detail, we were going to have time for a 1step polish. his car was in pretty good shape with a few dings here, rock chips there, and scattered RIDS. but driving 5 hours away to Virginia Tech for school and parking outdoors, i say his car was in pretty good shape.
the 106FF/white got most of the swirls out but the paint still wasnt perfect. BIMMERFAN08 agreed to come back in fall for a full paint correction which touch up is chips and RIDS with some touch up paint and wetsanding.
*moldings were going to be done by himself.
